Even though she could handle it, Calliope wasn't sure what Silas was thinking. In front of the Baker family, he, of course, said he wanted kids.
But deep down, she figured there was another woman in his heart. If there were someone he loved, how could he have a child with someone else?
As Calliope walked out of the room, she couldn't help but glance toward the end of the hallway. There was a room there – Silas's forbidden territory.
Silas had made it clear she wasn't allowed inside. Adah had also warned her that no one could enter that room, as it held something more precious to Silas than life itself.
Calliope guessed it probably had to do with the woman in his heart. It was his forbidden sanctuary, the one place that housed his vulnerability.
Pushing aside the thoughts swirling in her mind, Calliope headed downstairs.
"Adah, do we have any birth control pills in the house?" She asked without thinking.
Realizing her blunder, she felt awkward—why would there be birth control pills at home? It wasn't appropriate to ask Adah.
"Nope," Adah replied, glancing at her with a knowing smile. "Silas isn't getting any younger. You don't want to have a baby, Mrs. Myers?"
"We're not quite ready yet," Calliope explained awkwardly. "Adah, I'm not hungry. I'm heading out."
After that, Calliope grabbed her keys and drove off. She went straight to a nearby pharmacy, bought some emergency contraception, and only then did she feel a bit more at ease.
Unbeknownst to Calliope, Silas was parked across the street as she left the pharmacy, watching her with deep, inscrutable eyes. His handsome face was a mask of unreadable emotion.
Sitting in the driver's seat, Fagan glanced back at him secretly.

The readers' comments on the novel: A Reborn Bride Pearl Emerging from Dust
Oh wrestling expert ey? So is this Khamzat Chimaev or Shavkat Rakhmonov? Because Khabib's would be too haram....
Oh no. Million is just mix of Conor McGregor, Islam Makhachev, Mike Tyson, Max Holloway, Anderson Silva... I bet he lands 5sec flying knees like Jorge Masvidal too. Oh nope, 1sec knees. And has faster left hooks than Alex Pereira. Definitely would win UFC championship in every weight division including women. Poor Zhang Weili....
Okay so.... Million is now from East. Arctic wolf from East, modified genetically so he can manage his own Instagram and probably also box like Mike Tyson and snapping left hooks like Alex Pereira....
This is starting to be the same twister of abilities as Cassandra Yates and Tiffany. But question is, why the hell Silas can't just open his mouth and tell Caliope that she's the one whom he has in his heart. He would prevent a lot of misunderstanding. Seems like despite capability of talking with modified arctic wolf, she's not like telepathic....
Oh no, so FL is again another hidden genius with both hemispheres working on hundreds... Ffffuuuu. Cassandra Yates and Tiffany were already enough, ughugh. And Tiffany was even more exaggerated than Cassandra....
That's weird, in the first chapters there was said that her bio parents and bros doteď on Caliope but then they adopted Lisette, but this chapter suddenly says otherwise. Did author forget what he wrote?...
I REALLLYYY REALLLYYYY REALLYYYYYY WANT TO SLAP THE 3 BROTHERS WHENEVER THEY OPEN THEIR MOUTH !!! AND THEIR MOM !!!...
